Multistep inversion workflow for 3D long-offset damped elastic waves in the Fourier domain

Journal Article Petrov, Petr V. ; Newman, Gregory A. - Geophysical Prospecting

We present a new workflow for imaging damped three-dimensional elastic wavefields in the Fourier domain. The workflow employs a multiscale imaging approach, in which offset lengths are laddered, where frequency content and damping of the data are changed cyclically. Thus, the inversion process is launched using short-offset and low-frequency data to recover the long spatial wavelength of the image at a shallow depth. Increasing frequency and offset length leads to the recovery of the fine-scale features of the model at greater depths. For the fixed offset, we employ (in the imaging process) a few discrete frequencies with a set ofmore »« less

An example of resistivity log extrapolation with magnetotelluric data for a geothermal site

Journal Article Rigby, F ; McEuen, R B - J. Pet. Technol.; (United States)

When measurements from a borehole are available, using such data to aid in the inversion of surface measurements may offer considerable benefits. This possibility has been recognized with regard to seismic data in exploration for hydrocarbons. In geothermal exploration, resistivity data from surface measurements and well logs may offer the best synergism. An example is given by using a resistivity log and magnetotelluric (MT) data from the East Mesa field.
